History
The agreement between the Rangers and the city of Arlington, Texas
to build a new ballpark was announced on October 24, 1990. The
ballpark was named The Ballpark in Arlington on September 28,
1993. This $191 million complex also includes a baseball museum, a
children's learning center, and a four-story office building
within the ballpark and a youth baseball park, a 12-acre lake, and
parks and recreation space on the perimeter. The stadium's name
was changed to Ameriquest Field in Arlington for the 2005 season.
In March 2007, the team severed a 30-year naming rights deal with
struggling lender Ameriquest Mortgage Co. and rebranded their home
field as Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.
Playing field
The field consists of Bermuda Tifway 419. The sod was grown on a
farm in Granbury, Texas. Drainage lines are laid every 15 feet
over the entire field. The playing surface is covered by 4-to-5
inches of pea gravel and 14-to-15 inches of sand mixture as the
field is expected to have the capacity to drain 9-to-10 inches of
water per hour.
